Acer palmatum ‘Tobiosho’

Tobiosho Japanese Maple

A broad, upright habit, even when young, supports the dense, green canopy of Acer palmatum ‘Tobiosho’ from spring through summer. In fall, the foliage bursts into an unsurpassed show of brilliant colors that starts on the lower branches and advances up the tree. Gold appears first and changes to orange, then scarlet until all three colors are on display at once. Finally, they all go completely scarlet. This special garden tree was selected by and named for our production manager, Milt Tobie, in the fall of 1982.
